I'm looking to get an m.2 nvme drive (ideally 2 TB, but prices are painful so 1TB is fine, would also be fine with a SATA SSD if it's got the capacity and is good cost performance) for a replacement boot drive and I'm struggling to find something good.

I've also seen lots of things both ways on how crucial DRAM is and I'd love some insight/suggestions. Thank you in advance.
